Defiant: Kristen Stewart, here at a screening of new film On the Road, doesn't care what you think

She said: 'It’s not a terrible thing if you’re
either loved or hated. But honestly, I don’t care ’cause it doesn’t keep
me from doing my sh*t.'

'And I apologize to everyone for making them so
angry. It was not my intention.'

She added: 'It’s a little annoying having to be
so compartmentalized. I go from box to box to box. Like right now, this
is so crazy ’cause we’re out at a restaurant.'

Clue: Kristen's refusal to be cast in the traditional Hollywood starlet mode was the first indication that she isn't bothered about affirmation

'But I’m going out a lot more now, I
was starting to get closed off and self-conscious, and I’m trudging
forth into the world more often.'

And Kristen's attitude more than paid off with the bosses behind Snow White and the Huntsman as they chose to keep her for the sequel rather than Sanders.

The maverick On the Road actress will return as the armour-clad fairytale character while Rupert is left looking for another project, and still trying to patch things up with his wife, Liberty Ross.

Tough decision: Studio bosses had to choose between the director and
Kristen for the Snow White sequel and opted to keep the actress after the pair were caught having
an affair during the summer

Kristen was photographed kissing father -of-two Sanders, 41, in her car during the summer and after the cheating scandal became public, the Twilight star was forced to issue an apology to boyfriend Robert Pattinson.

In a statement she said: I'm deeply sorry for the hurt and embarrassment I've caused to those close to me and everyone this has affected.

'This momentary indiscretion has jeopardized the most important thing in my life, the person I love and respect the most, Rob.

'I love him, I love him, I'm so sorry.'

Despite her Kristen claiming the tryst happened only once there were several reports that the fling had been going on for 'months'.

While Sanders' personal future remains uncertain Kristen and Robert seem to be back on track.

The pair were spotted at JFK airport in New York last month after reportedly spending the Thanksgiving break with Robert's family in London.

The couple had earlier been spotted checking in at Heathrow airport in London on Friday for a flight to New York where they happily queued up with other passengers before taking their seats in first class.

The trip to London came after it was revealed 26-year-old Robert’s older sisters Lizzy and Victoria have finally forgiven Kristen for cheating on their brother with Sanders.

A source said: 'It was really important for Kristen to win back the love and trust of Rob's family, and she has done just that.

'They are all back on really good terms - even better than before. Kristen reached out to Rob's sisters and expressed how sorry she was.

'They are proud of how far she has come and they know she has been treating their brother like gold.'
